I just smoked my first turkey today (11-18-18). Was also the trial run for my new (used) WSM. Did a very similar technique, turned out great! Can hardly wait for Thanksgiving day. Good family and good food. We have a lot to be thankful for.
What a beautiful Golden bird!! Great cook and recipe! I have not done a spatchcock turkey yet, but it is coming! Love the way that the Guru kept the temp where you needed it throughout the cooking process!
I think TIF Is going to get his own show. PIF That dang turkey look outstanding. I’m going to get me one of those temperature control devices for my grill as well
They just announced a new and improved model of the DigiQ. I have the DX2 and the DX3 released the following week. I'm going in boys. This is a different model from the CyberQ you are thinking about. Yea TIF is always close by waiting on something to drop. Thanks-phil
I love Christy too! She is an inspiration for me also. I have just purchased a red kettle on a Black Friday deal. I hope to share a video soon. Have a great week!
Hey Phil......it’s your pit and you’re the pit master, do want you want to do.......Ya play with that new toy. Bird looked JUST GREAT BTW. Officially approved by the dog.
The Turkey looks great. I might have to asked mrs. Claus if I can get a guru for xmas lol. The bacon wrapped asparagus is a must in our household. I have that same slicer and it works very well.
Hey Joe. Yea you be nice to Ms Santa and there is no tellin what might be in your stocking. I'm gonna luv that slicer. I actually got the bacon wrapped Asparagus idea from you. Mine stayed too long in the cooker. Getting the bacon done without overcooking the Asparagus is tricky. Thanks and Happy Thanksgiving
That Turkey looks great....great color man. And Janet's sides look too good. I really dont cook turkey often, but im going to mimic this cook and see if i enjoy. Cook on guys. hope you and family have a wonderful Thanks Giving.
Hey Craig. I'm glad you like the PIF channel. I try to keep it interesting. I appreciate your comment. Means a lot. Just buy things little here, and little there. Thanks-phil
HEY PHIL, you killed that spatchcock turkey man, the color of that turkey was awesome looking. I see you got your guru working, that's great man, I am happy for you. Getting back to the turkey, that garlic and butter was awesome. It was so tender and juicy, I wish I could have had a bite of it. You did a fantastic job Phil at cooking that turkey. OUTSTANDING BROTHER. GOD BLESS YOU AND JANET.!!!!!
Another hour of video had to cut out. Video of making the garlic butter rub, injection recipe, and the baste. Maybe I'll make another seperate video with that. Thanks for all the nice comments Joe. I was very pleased. The guru stayed on target.
Hey Phil! Liked all the seasonings you used for this. No lack of flavor, that's for sure! I liked this set up........why not try it.....it's fun! And no bricks! :-) Nice color on the skin....good call to tent when you were happy with that. I could tell when you sliced the breast that it was done perfectly. Super moist and tender! Great cook and Video! Happy Thanksgiving to You, Janet, and Toby!
Hey Ken. I had the video clips of making the Garlic Butter rub, The Injection, and the baste. Had to cut out due to video length. I did leave the recipe in description box. Getting more use to the DigiQ an how it works. Thanks for checking it out. Happy Thanksgiving to you and Karin
Some how I missed this video Phil. OK...today while out working I came across 6 turkeys in a yard and everything was fine...then they ran for the woods like they saw you and your grill Phil!! No wonder...your turkey looked amazing, juicy, beautiful and delicious PIF, JIF & TIF!
Glad you watched. By the way it was the end of the line for Tom. Also we got to use the guru, and new slicer. A practice run for the Thanksgiving cook. Thanks-phil
It's hard going getting that spine cut out, but after that it's plain sailing. It's a really good way to cook a big bird though. I love your new Victorinox carver!
Nice looking Turkey! I just smoked one for Thanksgiving on my Kamado Joe and it turned out great. I will have to try my kettle next time! Hope you had a great Thanksgiving!
Holy sh*t you know what your doing.!! Lol... butt I already knew that brother.!! Great job taking turkey cooking to a new level.!! Thanks for listing the info in the description.!! The taste test says it all.!!
@11:03 I just have this toy and I want to play with it! WTG I am doing a turkey this Friday or Sunday and will be using this method. I was going to hang it in the WSM.
Thanks for the mention😊Your turkey turned out perfect!! The color was amazing. I hate that plastic piece, mine was still a little frozen, didn’t think I was ever gonna get it out of mine. Spatchcock is a funny word😂I’m doing mine hot and fast again for Thanksgiving, just gonna go easier on the rub, as far as appearance goes. I know that turkey was delicious with the injection and rubbing it with garlic butter😍You don’t need a Guru, you wanted one, that’s all that matters😂Love your new knife, may have to get me one. That whole spread looked good. Thanks for sharing😃
You are one of a handful of viewers who watch most of the video and always have meaningful comments. I appreciate that Christy. I like toys and gadgets not because of how much they cost, but because they are interesting and fun. Thanks for the great comments and for watching-. You have taught me a lot from watching your videos. Happy Thanksgiving
I hope you're still looking at this. Based upon your "advice", I've ordered those accessories. I've also watched your other video on adding Pit Viper to the Weber Kettle. Mine is 26" so I'm really looking forward to seeing if the spatchcock turkey will fit a bit better. Now, my question is where did you get your "goose-neck" holder for your Pit Viper controller? I've got the CyberQ controller on order and I hope it gets in before my wife notices the charge :D . Love your videos and the way you present yourself; I've subscribed and I hope that helps you. Further, I really "identified" with your Craftsman drill. I've had plenty of those throughout time. You're a good man and have brought me some joy. Take care.
You just made my day. I really appreciate your comments. You will have an easier fit and cook on the 26 for sure. I need to use my guru again. I've been looking at it in my bedroom on the floor in the case thinking about what to cook with it. It's an expensive accessory, but really works great. The gooseneck holder that the Thermoworks Storm Thermometer was in came from Amazon. The other magnetic holder came from BBQ Guru I ordered extra as an accessory. Well worth it. If you look back under the video, you will see the words SHOW MORE. Click on that and you will see a drop down showing links to these items. That Craftsman Drill goes back to the 70"s when me and my late partner use to have it on our work truck. He's in Hillbilly Heaven now. I appreciate the sub to the PIF channel, and stay tuned for more vids. Be looking for that Visa bill and go ahead and file it away. lol
Hey Steve. Below the video are words show more in bold. Click on that to see all of the links to equipment used in the video. If you're on a phone, touck the arrow on the right side below the video. Thanks-phil
had to come have a look at your turkey! that weber is a mean little cooker and looks like you nailed it!! i also use the Party Q (battery version by BBQ Guru) on my drum....love it!!!
Phil I thought Thanksgiving was this Thursday lol. That bird looked fabulous. It was clearly juicy throughout. I was a little leery of doing a chicken or turkey on my Kettle, but I may have to try it now. Happy Thanksgiving bud.
Hey Steve. It turned out very good. First time on the kettle for me too. Check out Baby Back Maniac channel. He did one last year on a kettle and turned out great. Thanks for watching and commenting. Happy Thanksgiving
Great vid as always Phil, curious if the Dragon's Wing would fit on the Weber Smokey Mountain? I've been looking for some kind of table side for the WSM.
Sorry, but I had already checked on that. The WSM barrel edge and lid fit is different than the kettle and the dragon wing will not work on the wsm. I was disappointed too.Thanks for watching. Happy Thanksgiving
Awesome looking turkey. I cooked one almost exactly like you did (but without the Guru) and it tuned out great. I had the same concern with the turkey getting too dark too fast. I was afraid of wrapping the bird because of the chance of the skin getting soft and mushy instead of crisp. I didn’t wrap the turkey and the skin was crisp. Yours looked good as well. Thanks for taking the time to put this video together. Keep them coming and I hope you have a great Thanksgiving. By the way what was the name of that knife you said you got off of Amazon.
Hey Glenn. I'm glad you posted that info. Most viewers love to read other's comments and experiences, especially when they are getting ready to try it. I know I do. The kettle will do a great job with or without the guru. Glad you had a successful cook. Makes you feel good when you put the time in and everything worked with a great tasting result. The slicing knife is a Victorianox ordered from Amazon. A company in Switzerland that makes the Swiss Army Knives. Thanks-phil
That turkey looked perfect Phil, ya almost dropped the asparagus:) but that’s great too. Injection is really awesome on birds and other meat. Nice job brother!
Thanks Pickles. It all turned out good. When I had the needle out I asked Janet if she was up on all her shots, or if her joints needed greezin. LOL Thanks-phil
1st of all I thought you would know right off the Bat those are Dam good potatoes Janet made them. The guru demonstration was great,the turkey was 5star. Carving technique right on. Congratulations on the new slicer, I going to remember this video as The day he lay Olé Hickory down. There is a song that would work with that. The Reason Toby is always close by, he is man's best friend. The Day Olé Hickory Died ....... Happy Thanksgiving to All of The Florences
Now that was a hilarious post. The night they laid 'Ole Hickory Down'. And all the people were sayin...LOL. Thanks for the great comments John. It went pretty good. Guru held at 325. Turkey Pot Pie comin up tomorrow. The 20 pounder coming Thursday with pulled pork for big family gathering. Thanks-phil
Hey IFs, thats all the family, PIF, JIF, and TIF That bird looked real good, did u use any wood chunks or just straight charcoal? U need to use your OSHA approved crocs next time out grillin. As u well know it is always fun experimenting with all the PIF rigs, tryin something different. Did Toby have a preference on white or dark meat? Everything looked Tasty, spuds, bacon wrapped asparagus, ciabatta rolls, and the turkey of course. Two thumbs and one paw up on that cook. J
Hey there Jay. I'm glad yo appreciate the effort made. Most of the day on cook day with some time night before on pre prep. Then edit begins satdy night til 1 or 2am. Then nearly half day Sunday. Takes a lot to put this on. TIF eats white and dark. Love my crocs with holes on top. Much more cooler. That one little hot flake hit the hole. LOL. Everything turned out great. Janet's picked up what sounds like a great tirkey pot pie recipe this bird is headed for. Thanks for watching.
Phil N Florence Can’t wait to see that homemade turkey pot pie! I do know the effort that it takes and I appreciate it, its a labor of love. A Love Of The Grill! J
Hey Steve. That cutter came from SAMS a couple years ago. Was included in a pack of those colored knives as a bonus. I've tried to locate them before but only find kitchen shears. The closest thing in appearance is what's called a bunch cutter. Haven't seen them in SAMS anymore. I've seen plenty of those colored knives but this cutting tool must have been put together for a SAMS CLUB promotional. If I find them I'll let you know.
Well, I couldn't find them, but JIF found them in half a minute at Amazon. I looked there too. Oh well, two heads better than one. LOL Here is the link. www.amazon.com/Kuhn-Rikon-Classic-Snips-8-Inch/dp/B00D096UMK/ref=pd_aw_fbt_79_img_3?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B00D096UMK&pd_rd_r=a9e666cd-fbc8-11e8-9a63-6faf7087f18c&pd_rd_w=QvLRl&pd_rd_wg=Bo9AQ&pf_rd_p=b98fa1a4-6e6e-4981-835c-7fb29e0f4dd2&pf_rd_r=X28GS7QP36GEECZY06D3&psc=1&refRID=X28GS7QP36GEECZY06D3
That turkey was dirt cheap!!!! The lowest price around here is 88¢/lb, and that's hard to find. Food prices are very high up here. Don't drop the asparagus. The turkey looked fantastic for sure. Those slicing knives are great, I would like to get one. Have a great Thanksgiving. RTFO!!! GB
Hey GB. I couldn't believe Janet when she told me she paid $3.95 for a 14.6 lb turkey, and $5.00 for a 20 lb turkey. You saw that Asparagus disappear, LOL. Sharp eye eh? Think I'm gonna love that slicing knife. Thanks for stopping by GB. RO
Hey John. I knew there are viewers who felt like you. And there ain't nothin wrong with that. The cooker will do just fine right out the box. I just like playing with stuff. I don't hunt, fish, golf, travel or gamble, so I have to spend some fun money on something. Thanks for watching and thanks for your comment. Happy Thanksgiving
@@progers5019 maybe try the KISS.(keep it simple stupid) method... butt..whatever snaps your cap! enjoy your bbqing anyway you like.i have cooked all kind of goodies in my trusty weber kettles ..on 3rd one.., prime rib ,pork , wild pig, quail,dove,bandtail ,rattlesnake,turkey,duck pheasant,venison,yard bird, veggies ect...what ever ..slow cook WOOD smoked damn good eatin'...everyone else is buying fancy pellet smokers..800bucks made in china???wtf??

Some how I missed this video Phil. OK...today while out working I came across 6 turkeys in a yard and everything was fine...then they ran for the woods like they saw you and your grill Phil!! No wonder...your turkey looked amazing, juicy, beautiful and delicious PIF, JIF & TIF!
Glad you watched. By the way it was the end of the line for Tom. Also we got to use the guru, and new slicer. A practice run for the Thanksgiving cook. Thanks-phil
Oh, and about them yard turkeys, lucky for them it wasn't me and Toby there. LOL
Awesome color, great recipe/cook bud sweet knife. You've got all the toys hahaha
Thanks for the comments. I've been wanting a slicing knife forever. Just broke down and ordered it. Thanks-Phil
Yep, very similar to the bird I did. Your bird looks really fine Phil. Good job.
Thanks Mike. After a couple eats Turkey pot pie it is. Another larger bird next week. Price was right though.
Another good job thanks to JIF & TIF help. Ha! Happy Thanksgiving to all.
Hey there Mike. Was another long but fun cook. Everything turned out great. See y'all soon.
Wow that came out great! Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family.
Thanks Warren. Gotta go eat another round now. LOL
HA HA Yeah!
Color on that bird was off the chain Phil! I've got that same knife.
Thanks Jeff. Maybe I'll be able to slice my ribs now without tearing them up. Happy Thanksgiving
It's hard going getting that spine cut out, but after that it's plain sailing. It's a really good way to cook a big bird though. I love your new Victorinox carver!
Yes the turkey spine is larger and harder to cut out than chicken. That knife slices great. Thanks Pete. Happy Thanksgiving
Great video !!! Thank You both and Tobie. Happy Thanksgiving!!!!
Thanks for watching and commenting. Happy Thanksgiving
Got the Red and the SnS. Love your Videos. Doing the same cook this year. You know what they say "he who dies with the most toys is the winner. 👍🦃
LOL, Good Luck on your cook. I know it will be good.
Love them TOYS. Happy Thanksgiving

@11:03 I just have this toy and I want to play with it! WTG I am doing a turkey this Friday or Sunday and will be using this method. I was going to hang it in the WSM.

That came out beautiful!
Looked like a tight fit at the beginning but it cooked great on there.

Great looking bird Phil. Great looking meal !!!! HAPPY THANKSGIVING from Knoxville TN.

Another good one Phil, I'll be doing the same thing on my wsm, & guru,
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family.
Alright Fred. Go for it. I was happy with the guru. Took a while to reach 325, but held it just fine. Good luck on your cook and Happy Thanksgiving

They do cut easier because of how the hinge point is set different than kitchen scissors.
Well, I couldn't find them, but JIF found them in half a minute at Amazon. I looked there too. Oh well, two heads better than one.

Can you please show making the giblet gravy please
Hey Jeffrey. We are done with Turkey n dressing with Giblet for a while, but I can post the recipe if you want.
@@progers5019 yes if you don't remind
That turkey was dirt cheap!!!! The lowest price around here is 88¢/lb, and that's hard to find. Food prices are very high up here.
Don't drop the asparagus. The turkey looked fantastic for sure. Those slicing knives are great, I would like to get one. Have a great Thanksgiving.
RTFO!!! GB
Hey GB. I couldn't believe Janet when she told me she paid $3.95 for a 14.6 lb turkey, and $5.00 for a 20 lb turkey. You saw that Asparagus disappear, LOL. Sharp eye eh? Think I'm gonna love that slicing knife. Thanks for stopping by GB. RO
Cha_ ba_ ta :)
no like, too many gizmos & b.s. over complicated ..just smoke cook in weber works fine check temp once in a while
Hey John. I knew there are viewers who felt like you. And there ain't nothin wrong with that. The cooker will do just fine right out the box. I just like playing with stuff. I don't hunt, fish, golf, travel or gamble, so I have to spend some fun money on something. Thanks for watching and thanks for your comment. Happy Thanksgiving
@@progers5019 maybe try the KISS.(keep it simple stupid) method... butt..whatever snaps your cap! enjoy your bbqing anyway you like.i have cooked all kind of goodies in my trusty weber kettles ..on 3rd one.., prime rib ,pork , wild pig, quail,dove,bandtail ,rattlesnake,turkey,duck pheasant,venison,yard bird, veggies ect...what ever ..slow cook WOOD smoked damn good eatin'...everyone else is buying fancy pellet smokers..800bucks made in china???wtf??

I definitely believe in pit cook over wood and whole hog type cooking over shoveled red hot oak/hickory coals for best BBQ.
